Oh is that a vow or something? Dat hand kiss.

The kid doesn't look too happy though. Action was okay I guess, still not too much into it though.

It was unexpectedly interesting story-wise though some yaoi-ish moments were too suggestive and annoying. Curious to see where Dantalion vs. Kevin is headed.

William likes to annoy me but I'm glad he's becoming better. Dantalioonnnnnn I love this guy. Best out of all the demons (it was that way for me in the manga too).

Father is an exorcist. Sport vs. tea party. lol I'm not too sure what that devils said about realist not remembering. Exorcist vs. the devils.

Realist is being tsundere for being Realist and escaping from them. Though he decided to keep them around "to investigate him" FukuJin's character came in replacing that exorcist!! + that 4th devil appearing!

I've seen more annoying MC than William, and the good thing is his level of annoyance can be overlooked.

Even though I have no problem with BL I just hope these demons would keep their hands to themselves because it's annoying when the story is not actually BL.

I think things will get even more crazier with Cecil around, cannot wait for the next episode.

Seems like most people don't like William...and I don't either. He's quite the annoying MC. I actually like light BL, but for some reason, not in this anime. It kind of makes me feel uncomfortable x_x

I hear you. It's probably because William is raining down on this parade.

Eh. This anime is one of those that I can't really decide if I'm enjoying or not. Plus, I dislike the protagonist as much as everyone else.
Is this series intended to be BL? I don't really mind it, but it seems like way too much to just be subtext

So Priest Crosby was an Exorcist : 0 More enemies will go after him. Kevin is the new priest. Probably to watch over William. Also maybe to give him Solomon's Ring?

Ohhhh Dantalion and William are getting close. Poor Sitori. He got beat up. Can't wait to see Camio XD

Edit: Ahh Camio was in this episode. He was the green hair megane. Saw a tumblr post XD!!!

I'm liking the anime xD Can't help but being biased as a Kuroshitsuji fanboy but I'm definitely enjoying the setting. Too bad the story doesn't deliver, yaoi momments are too obvious to the point of being annoying as ****, MC is a jerk and what even is that red-haired dude? A pet? Nope. A cat would be more useful than him.

I'm watching this to the end, the atmosphere alone makes it worth taking aside the subpar development. Probably rating this with a 7 or 8 if it gets better.

Not bad so far but I'm not really a fan yet. All of the characters grate on my nerves. Can't think of any characters I actually like yet.

Was surprised to see the new priest though. That was a good twist. I'll keep watching, for now.

I'm surprised most people didn't see the BL moments coming....I sensed it like a mile away ever since ep1

William does kinda piss me off in a way with his uselessness and "You're all not real" attitude and stuff....but he hasn't bugged me so much to the point that I want to drop the show.....yet....

Kevin's background intrigues me though....based on the Op & ED sequences it feels like there is some mystery behind him and now that he's going to be the 'replacement Pastor' I feel there's a huge "HMMMMMMmmmmm..........." flag....

In the manga William starts to practice magic so looking for that in the anime, tho He is quite annoying atm. I cant stand the BL-moments but uh Dantalion u so hot ;_;
Sitori should be strong so that fight in the church was odd..

^I dont think the anime will cover when William practices magic with count Glenstare and he has problems because


I dont understand all the hate for William. He just wants to be a politician and he being stubborn on denying demons is probably linked to his childhood (the manga hinted that maybe the ncident where his parents were killed made him deny God and everyrhing unexplainable).
And now random demons who go against his beliefs stalk him every day, people linked to Heaven want to kill him and has economical problems.

They skipped many awesome scenes like Sytry's true form, William going to Isaac's house to help him deal with a demon (people would have liked William more in that chapter since he helped that demon who was suffering), the introduction of the queen Astaroth and her daughter Lamia, William's imagination during his scene with the pastor...

Is there anyone knows the voice actor for Ernest Crosby? At first I think it's Daisuke Ono, but later on I think it's Hino Satoshi.

I live the BL/shounen-ai ^o^ moments, and I like William (but not really Isaac) even if he's a little too much tsundere... but Dantalion is the best!

The mahou-shounen transformation was very fast this time ^^

But about the hand kiss, it's almost the only moment between Dantalion and William who was actually not BL/shounen-ai ^o^! It was used to make vows of allegiance in the Middle Ages! often used by knights to their king, which is the official relationship between William and Dantalion.

It's funny to read that "Makai Ouji: Devils and Realist" is more BL/shounen-ai than "Free!" because it was an evidence since the beginning! Free! is intended to female viewers but only with bishounen fanservice (still hope for some shounen-ai/BL fanservice but yet, excepted for some sentences who can be interpreted in different ways...), this one is a shoujo full of bishounen, without - for the moment at least - girls so of course there are BL/shounen-ai moments!

William is rather annoying and he's stuck with the same personality as 2 episodes ago, though he might've finally warmed up just a tiny bit at the end of this episode.
I love Dantalion, I really hope they'll tell more about his background, like how he became a demon etc.

As for the BL or yaoi-like atmosphere of this show, it was quite obvious at the very beginning, and it is okay to me *because* the main character, William currently refuses his ancestors' subordinates. (He slightly changed it now, though.) I would have stopped watching if he had accepted the situation and acted like a playboy to them. It seems that the bond between Solomon and the demons were not just contraction or homage but a kind of faith and salvation. It's natural for William to need more time to understand what happened in the past and how the bond was. So far, he made a concession that he doesn't ignore them as far as they behave as the students there and keep the rules in human society. He said a stupid excuse that he had to observe them in a light of science and thus he would allow them to stay around him. He is really stubborn but not completely.

So I guess like me, some others are slightly annoyed by William at this point.

Haha, I thought Sytry looks like a girl, but he or Dantalion might be my favorite character so far.
Good to see Kevin again, I actually forgot about him up to this point.

Also, at this point he's not a realist... more like a denial-ist. lol.

I like the OST.
William X Dantalion!!

A mysterious character named Nathan Caxton appeared.

Pastor Ernest Crosby is actually an exorcist. But he gets injured.
This is why Kevin is the new priest!

Apparently, there's something mysterious that has to do with William's memories and Solomon.

There are no girls in this anime, so far. Still waiting to see where this goes.
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling.

>mock humans for being cruel
>try to turn than human into a demon as ultimate punishment
Seems legit.

Other than that - Pastor Crosby would be the best pony of the show if he'd be more mysterious and used more gambits, Danatalion is a badass in a reeeeally cheesy way and William's "I know everything about'cha, dude" blabbering is cheesy as well.

Makai Ouji would be one of my favorite manga, but anime honestly just destroyed it for me :| Manga is a 9. Anime is barely for 7.

And what's with all of you and hating William, I adore him!
But I seriously wanted to scream into my pillow with that first scene with Sitri. THAT WAS A MAHOU SHOJO TRANSFORMATION WITH SPARKLES AND PINK AND I HATED IT THAT WASN'T SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN!
Also, you should enjoy those small shonen ai fanservice moments, because it's as far as it'll go xD

William is annoying? I'd say that 90% of the people in this thread are more annoying.

I love William, idk why you people say he's annoying, he's cute and he's totally tsundere. This episode reinforced my Dantalion x William ship ugh they're so cute togther. Overall this episode was amazing, awesome magic fights, pretty boys, good story, etc.

Also the OP and ED continue to deliver, when I watch Makai Ouji I look forward to listening to the OP the most.

If you don't like BL then get the hell out and stop watching this anime. There isn't even any hardcore scenes with kissing they're literally JUST touching eachother. Obviously you like the BL enough to continue the anime though, so that says something about you.

Probably the best anime of Summer for me <3

I also love William's character; tsundere or whatever, I feel he has to hold his own against beings that are more powerful than humans. Love the attitude and regardless of the realist demeanor, too much has happened that he can't believe, William is just being stubborn. I, however, also love that about his character.

Kevin is the new priest... interesting. I wonder if that's a good thing for William or a bad thing for Dantalion, the demon looked pretty annoyed.
